What gets me about this movie is that the premise means that every person on screen truly believes they are the last people. Every death is one step closer to the end, with no one around to eulogize us or remember any of our accomplishments, our stories, our history, that we ever existed at all. Yet in our decent into nothingness, we still do all these horrible things to each-other. Faced with the end, we as a species turned nihilistic, animalistic, and turned on eachother. Then you realize that it's not far from where we are today, and where we are going. That's so painfully sad. Emmanuel "Chivo" Lubezki was cinematographer. His work is pretty special. The Revenant, Tree of Life, Gravity, Birdman, Burn after Reading. He often works with Alfonso Cuaron and Terrance Malick. His work is an automatic watch for me. He's cinematographer for an upcoming film "Amsterdam", which has a lot of star power in in.

I was lucky in that I saw this in the theater. I didn’t realize how much I was physically ducking and flinching because it felt so real. By the end of the movie I felt exhausted and a bit beaten up ...and then things got really weird. I was in a nice theater at an odd time that doesn’t get a lot of traffic. But when the movie was over I realized that I was completely alone in the theater, and I was already shook from the movie experience so I wanted to get around people and re-orient myself. I went out into the lobby and that was also empty. No patrons, no workers, nobody. I knew this had to be a coincidence but it was starting to freak me out. Instead of standing in the middle of the lobby yelling “is anybody here?” like a crazy person I decided to go outside...and there were still NO moving cars or people! About 30 seconds later I FINALLY saw moving traffic. I never did bother to find out why the theater was so empty. I just left after that. It was such a bizarre experience but it makes this movie even more special for me.

I marvel at what a concept for a story this is. Lots of stories feature a threat of extinction, but there is a huge difference between the emotion of humanity going out in a blink, such as an impending asteroid impact, and what we have here. This is not just an extinction event, it's our human battle of coming to grips with mortality, our own inevitable end, on the grandest scale imaginable. Picture the entire human race growing older, facing the end, with no future generations to soften that understanding we all have to eventually accept. It's bound to create an environment filled with insanity, hostility, and desperation. An amazing, jarring, and emotional concept that not only was done justice by a filmmaker, but put into a masterpiece of cinema.
